Ezekiel 16:23-35

23“Then it was so, after all your wickedness—‘Woe, woe to you!’ says the Lord God—

24that you also built for yourself a shrine, and made a high place for yourself in every street.

25You built your high places at the head of every road, and made your beauty to be abhorred. You offered yourself to everyone who passed by, and multiplied your acts of harlotry.

26You also committed harlotry with the Egyptians, your very fleshly neighbors, and increased your acts of harlotry to provoke Me to anger.

27“Behold, therefore, I stretched out My hand against you, diminished your allotment, and gave you up to the will of those who hate you, the daughters of the Philistines, who were ashamed of your lewd behavior.

28You also played the harlot with the Assyrians, because you were insatiable; indeed you played the harlot with them and still were not satisfied.

29Moreover you multiplied your acts of harlotry as far as the land of the trader, Chaldea; and even then you were not satisfied.

30“How degenerate is your heart!” says the Lord God, “seeing you do all these things, the deeds of a brazen harlot.

31“You erected your shrine at the head of every road, and built your high place in every street. Yet you were not like a harlot, because you scorned payment.

32You are an adulterous wife, who takes strangers instead of her husband.

33Men make payment to all harlots, but you made your payments to all your lovers, and hired them to come to you from all around for your harlotry.

34You are the opposite of other women in your harlotry, because no one solicited you to be a harlot. In that you gave payment but no payment was given you, therefore you are the opposite.”

35‘Now then, O harlot, hear the word of the Lord!
